Backstory

Vintage Nicholls. Funny, bittersweet, ever so human - Tom

Marnie is stuck. Stuck working alone in her London flat, stuck battling the long afternoons and a life that often feels like it's passing her by.

Michael is coming undone. Reeling from his wife's departure, increasingly reclusive, taking himself on long, solitary walks across the moors and fells.

When a persistent mutual friend and some very English weather conspire to bring them together, Marnie and Michael suddenly find themselves alone on the most epic of walks and on the precipice of a new friendship. But can they survive the journey?

The unmissable next instalment of Tim Shipman's #1 bestselling Brexit quartet.

This is the ultimate insider narrative to three of the most turbulent and impactful years of government, revealing the strategies, gambles, mistakes, mindsets and scandals that have shaped and shaken Britain. As always, political insider and Chief Political Commentator for the Sunday Times Tim Shipman unleashes a slew of insight - and gossip - to reveal the democratic drama as it really happened.
